I lost a bit of hope that there will be altcoin season.

This happens during every bull market. Market Makers want to shake you out via boredom or fear. Don’t capitulate & give them your coins for cheap. There will be a big Altcoins run this year, you just need to be patient.

My belief was that there was going to be massive altcoin szn in Feb and March this year after Trump got elected.
I could not really anticipate that the tariff issue was going to crash the market like this.
Now, hope for altcoin is really fading and BTC will only stay and go higher in my opinion..
I would like to know how everyone is thinking about altcoins?

Maybe don't expect it for now, but you can still buy altcoins that you believe can give you profit in the future, just make sure they are included in the top listing in the crypto market.
Just keep going and don't lose hope.

Let's imitate the whale investors in their patience and willingness to wait and have a target for when they will sell and this year, now since we are in a bull run and the moment is when you notice that the bull season is ending, sell if you have any profit at all then you can do it again when the bear run enters.

Aside from specific altcoins in the market, I believe it’s mostly Going to be about Bitcoin now with the largest movements, and it’s going to affect the market negatively. It’s hard to type it, but I think knowing the right coins would help you recover in profit. Right now, I think it would take a long time and wait for the bull run.

The election of Donald Trump to the presidency should be a breath of fresh air for crypto investors, especially Bitcoin, however, the reality is inversely proportional when he is inaugurated as president, his economic policies have a significant impact, not only on the economies of other countries, but the crypto market is also affected, this makes things worse.

So far the market is just pump and dump, the recent tariff war has made holders take cautious steps which causes price movements to be very volatile, for prices to return to ath is difficult, the altcoin season has low potential to occur.

We are a couple tweets away from a bull market and alt season, same for also bear market and years of pain.

Altcoins have been crushed and are now in disarray. I am trying to be positive about them but I think the expected rise in the spring is over.
When Trump was elected President, there was a very clear rise, then I wanted to close my eyes to the tariffs and other trade uncertainties, my wallet melted away.
I was optimistic about the altcoin season a few weeks ago, but now I can't be that optimistic.

I believe an altcoin season will require a Fed pivot to QE. Altseason has already occurred in this cycle, just not as much as most people expected. If the Fed is to pivot on policy, it's very likely that the top altcoins will rise again. Fed easing will also likely boost other speculative markets, such as collectibles.

It can all change in a matter of days - If US agree tariff deal with China and we see rate cuts over the next few months then up we go towards $100k again.

If this US and China mess carries on then chances of alt season will be small.

All we can do is wait and hope this tariff war can be resolved in the next few weeks or so. 

I can't wait to sell and be done with it all personally, it is all manipulated heavily and I'm tired of it. Soon as we see next big pump I am selling most of my bags.

Two months ago, this same topic became an argument between me and someone. When Bitcoin was pumping and some other altcoins also followed it, I told the person that after this general price movement, there's no going to be a different altcoins season because many coins have already experienced the bullish price impact. He doubted, saying that there's going to be a massive pump for altcoins, I am not investing in any altcoins but based on my experience in the space, I doubt there's going to be any altcoin season. If Bitcoin pump again, other altcoin might follow suit.

It is only normal for you to feel this way, but look at the past and the crashes and how it recovered from that, to realize that you are not doing a bad job by keep holding at the moment if you can. Because if you check the previous bears and pre-bull runs, you will see that we are living through something pretty close to it and not going to end up with anything worse, so we should be considering the same thing at the moment and not feel too bad about it neither.

Yes, it is not really a bad run at the moment but we need to consider how this could be a good one and not a bad one at all. If you could make some money from it, then you should not be worried about it. I believe in this to work and I hope we can move upwards again.

I think we are going to have altcoins season but this time it’s will be different from that of 2020 or the previous bull markets. Not all altcoins will pump all at once. It is going to be a few altcoins doing really good. Memes and shitcoins have over saturated the altcoin market so most liquidity flows there and not to altcoins

I've guessed differently. When I saw Bitcoin can easily cross $100k and it even reached $109k at that time, there should some big declines following. And it really happened, so I'm not so surprised with the current market condition. However I am still confidence with altcoins season, it should happen although it can be a bit late. We may still have red market until Q2, but I assume we will have green market for all crypto coins in Q3 or in the early of Q4. That will be the possible time for altcoins season.

I hope the memecoin season passes soon, and people start investing/supporting more utility projects. This meme cycle may have been demotivating for developers working on projects that offer real world solutions/utility driven projects.

There is no longer much hype on meme coins. It has been over already for meme coin season. People surely focus more on established coins, that's why people prefer Bitcoin than altcoins at this time.

Most memecoins are pretty much close to dead already. It's just a minority like the likes of fartcoin are still up and somewhat bouncing bigly.

You're right, mate. Even if there is a pump on few meme coins, it is just temporarily. It is no longer the same as in the few months ago when many meme coins were pumped. Now, Bitcoin is the only coin that constantly has a pump although it often dropped quite significant, too.

I think we’re in the last few weeks of consolidation & chop in this tight range. It happened last year too, then we finally broke out to new highs. I think we will follow Good soon, crypto is like a ball being held under water at the moment. As soon as it’s go time, we will know about it.
